Bug 199496 – Emerging media-video/totem-2.20.1 fails since no X flag exists in media-libs/gst-plugins-base-0.10.15

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Tim Harder 2007-11-18 07:13:35 UTC]

Running on unstable one cannot emerge media-video/totem-2.20.1 as it requests
that media-libs/gst-plugins-base is compiled with the X use flag. However the
latest version, media-libs/gst-plugins-base-0.10.15, doesn't include the X flag in
possible use flag choices.

[Comment 1 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2007-11-18 07:17:07 UTC]

That's a silly check to add, I've explicitely removed these USE flags from -base in order to get rid of unnecesasary recompiles wrt PDEPENDs.

Totem should be pulling gst-plugins-x itself..

[Comment 2 Tim Harder 2007-11-18 07:33:50 UTC]

That makes sense to me. I attached a patch that adds an X use flag which pulls in gst-plugins-x and removes the previous behavior.

Patch that adds an X use flag to totem which pulls in gst-plugins-x.

If it fails, then it cannot be optional.

Alright, then would it make sense to just add gst-plugins-x as a dependency?

Add gst-plugins-x dependency to totem and remove the check for the X use flag of media-libs/gst-plugins-base.
